Closed-matter access reviews for offshore law firm support
Check whether support access matches a firm-approved closure instruction without deciding retention, deletion, or client obligations.
Defined workflowAttorney review gatesPractical escalation
Start with the closure instruction
Record the matter, closure source, effective date, systems, folders, queues, and access owner named by the firm. Keep the instruction and current access evidence together.
Compare access to the approved list
List accounts, permissions, shared links, and open tasks that remain visible. An unexpected item is a review question, not permission to delete or revoke it immediately.
Route action to the owner
Send the comparison to the firm and system owners with evidence for each exception. They decide retention, transfer, access removal, client communication, and any further review.
